Question on the Original Bradley and temps.

[Gizmo]

Trouble is, i feel like i had my xmas present and somebody took it away again :'(

LIL, that sounds worse than the "Batteries not Included" presents at xmas time and no stores are open.  Good to hear you made it back safe and sound.

Too bad LilS,  >:(  I liked the looks of that rig - glad it is sorted out now.  ;)

Hope you get the new rig soon. That all had to be a real bummer. ;)

Thanks guys  ;)

Well the truck didn't last long, but my BS is still going strong!

Hey maybe Bradley should get into the vehicle market?

[Mr Walleye]

They were already built from 1971 to 1979, actually a kit car, just follow the link.

And if memory serves me correctly, all you needed was a volkswagon chassis to mount the kit on.

Here are some pictures of the Ribs....







I used the OBS with Hickory preheated to 150 and put the ribs in. I used a dry rub I found on here and did them for 4:00 Hours.  I didn't have time to FTC (poor planning) but they did turn out ok.  I finished them on the grill with some Presidents Choice Tequila Habanero sauce (half of the 3 racks) and just left the rub for the other half.... they were juicy and tender even without FTC. Definitely better than the way i used to do them...  ;D

Rub Recipe is as follows. 

1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup paprika
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon chili powder
3/4 tablespoon garlic powder
3/4 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon dry mustard.

I used a hot chili powder instead of mild instead of using Cayanne pepper like it called for.



I also bought the full rack and cut them into St. Louis cut myself.  at 1.99 / lb.  I thought it was a good deal.

Hi MacMan

Looks good! Very similar rub that I use.

When I do ribs I usually preheat to 250 degrees with the generator on to also warm it up as well. Then I load the ribs, the pucks in the generator and drop the temp back to 210 degrees. At about the 2 hour mark I rotate the racks. Then after 4 hours I pull the ribs, wrap them in foil with a shot of apple juice on them and fire them back in the smoker at 210 degrees for about 2 more hours. If I sauce them I do it on the grill just long enough to stiffen the sauce. They turn out really tender this way.

right on, thanks for the tip...I need to plan my time better...lol

But in hindsight, you never want them to be perfect because then you couldn't use the "practice" excuse...
